10 weeks post op and plain water is still giving me problems

I was a big water drinker preop, min 2 qts a day, loved my water! Loved drinking water! I hardly drank anything but water. (do you get that I loved water!) Now post op, water makes me feel sick to my stomache, feels heavy, no matter what the temp of it. If I add a small amount of juice to it (3-4 ozs to 12 ozs water) then it goes down fine. No problem. What is this about? I am now 10 1/2 weeks post op and this has not changed, I had hoped this would pass by now. I think I would feel better if I could get more liquid in, but I can only manage about 1 qt now. Everything else is going well physically (mentally, emotionally, that's another story!) Doctor does not know why this is, I have asked. Any others have this issue, any ideas?
